HI you all I have been trying to find out more about OPAL VISION. What is the best way to record images or animation playback from OpalVision ? I understand that there are a few other so call OpalVision add on that is so far not for sale yet. Is there anyone that have successfully Video taped animation from OpalVision ? If so, How did you do it ? Special cable ? Hardware ? I am trying to find out more about OpalVision before I go for it. Most of the reviews on Mags are just saying how great is Opal Paitn but did not address anything about how does the image looks like on Video Tape or view using a VIDEO Monitor. Has anyone check the output signal of OpalVision using WaveForm and Vector Scope ? <Don't shoot me, I am just digging ! 🙂 > Best Regards, Sze C

C, The add-on boards which will allow use of video with Opalvision have not been released yet. I'm having a ball right now with OpalPaint which is really nice. Just started using Opal Presents which is also nice. The add-on boards are sure to be great judging from the quality of the main board. ———————————————-Don- via Whap!

Greetings Thanks for the reply. I would like to see what it can do when the release is on. Hmmm… Hope it is not a vapour ware. Best Regards, Sze C

Just a note, I have used output from the opalvision with my Neriki genlock and it is just wonderful. I had to take it out my 4000 and put it in the 3000 because of the genlock problems! With a genlock you can record to tape today. JL
